Ashes, Ashes, We All Fall Down

Our daughter enjoys playing Ring Around the Rosy. The falling down part is her favorite part. Tomorrow we enter the season of Lent with the Imposition of Ashes on our heads. Ashes we were made from and to ashes we all will return.

When you think about it this is a messy and dirty ritual. The dirtier and better some would say. This only gives more opportunity for the cleansing power of Jesus to make us new again!

See you tomorrow as we begin our journey with ashes, falling down in humility before God who loves us inspite of ourselves.
